  Greetings from Uganda,   I hope and Pray that all is well with all of you.  As I watch the news it seems like things couldn't get worse.  The Church of America is under attack like never before and our prayers are with you.  It hasn't hit here yet but who knows after the next election. I still haven't gotten my work visa due to hassels with the NGO board.  I want to get it soon so there is no change in my status.  There have been rumors about cracking down on missionaries here and what they can do.  Pray for me as I pray for you. It has been a crazy year with a lot of challenges and changes. If you have been following me on Facebook you know I have had my challenges with my health.  It started with a mind case of malaria and just as I am getting over that I was hit with a massive sinus infection that lasted over 2 weeks, and in the midst of that I severely sprained my ankle.  Things were starting to get back to normal and I was hi...

 Masindi  is in Western Uganda.  It is a beautiful farming area and we are working in the villages training church leaders and members in evangelism and the study of the Word of God.

 We have come along way from the way from a bushy  empty lot, to a kitchen and the new Nursery rooms.  We hope to have this finished by the end of the year.  Then we will start on the old Primary rooms and make them permanent in brick and mortar. This is part of out 5 year plan,  We will make our plans but God will direct our paths.  This will be done as the Lord wills.  We feel a little frustrated as building supplies keep increasing in price, but we know that God is able and all things are done in His time and in His way. We will praise Him for all that is done. Our second term will begin May 9th.  Pray that we have teachers and students and the Lord is glorified in all that is done.  We are praying for 200+ students. 

  Good Morning,  It  was a busy April.  Now we are looking at May and planning a lot of ministry projects, but let me catch you up on what we have done. The Masindi Church Leadership Training went well.  I was able to spend a couple of days in Kampala visiting friends before having to catch the bus (alone) to Masindi.  It was a good time of visiting and I was with some of the people that I met on my first trip to Uganda in 2003.  They are still going strong for the Lord and that is an encouragement. In Masindi we had 2 long days of teaching and then going out into the village to do evangelism.  We divided up into 5 teams and just went to the area around the church and spoke to people and encouraged them and invited them to the church.  Many people gave their life to the Lord.  We were not able to get a car to take us back to Masindi from the village so we came out 5 people on 2 motorcycles, with luggage.  I wish I had ...

 The foundation is finished except for the filling then we can get the rebar and the support in to get the wall up and then the roof . The children of Little Angels Primary School where I will be leading a Bible study next term. Over night prayers after the Buikwe District Evangelism Ministry.  Pray for the New Christians and the churches that need to disciple them. Door to Door evangelism, sharing the gospel with our friends and neighbors. The children of Victory Faith Foundation School. Morning line up for morning devotions. The framework for the school kitchen. TIA.  It is now complete and there are iron sheet walls and roof.  Plenty of ventilation.  The group that used to live at the house.  Everyone is back at school now.

  Good Morning! The Lugazi Evangelism went well although it was not what I expected.  We started out with 12 churches, but when word got around about the ministry 11 more joined in.  However, when they found out there was no money, only teaching materials and some transport, 14 churches dropped out.  I was disappointed but this was not really unexpected. I deal with this all the time.  No one wants to commit unless there is something in it for them.  The prosperity gospel is is big here.  The 9 churches we did work with were committed and the Lord's work was done.  Praise God! We visited over 3,000 people and 1,500+ accepted Christ.  We also did a lot of school ministries and a lot of the children accepted Christ.  I now am able to start a Bible study in one school.  Next term I will have one hour to lead a Bible study every Friday.  And I have been invited back to one of the other schools to teach,but I am not sure how I will ...
